Greta Thunberg Pro - Palestine

Image
  Greta Thunberg will be removed from the school curriculum of the occupiers of Palestine, the israeli terrorists, after she expressed support for Gaza. I do not think that Greta will be affected by this because it is a curriculum that does not mention the zionist occupation of Palestine in 1948, the massacres committed against defenceless civilians, or that Palestinians have been living in the diaspora for the past 75 years with no rights.

The Palestinian Musakhan.

  The Palestinian Musakhan is a popular Palestinian dish, as well as sometimes being considered the traditional dish and a symbol of the Palestinian heritage. It is often called the national dish of Palestine. Although today, it is often difficult for the Palestinians in the diaspora to prepare it, and perhaps for those in occupied Palestine too. This is due to the excessive cost of living for the Palestinian refugees in Lebanon, a country that is going through financial hardship beyond imagination, and has a pathetic economy.

Sobhia Krayem I would like to introduce you to one of the faces of the Palestinian women’s struggle, the beautiful ambassador of Palestinian heritage, Sobhia Krayem. Her family are originally from Saffuriyya in the District of Nazareth, but she was born in Lebanon 70 years ago, a few years after her family were forcibly expelled from Palestine by the Zionist occupation forces during the Nakbah. She is a strong woman who has fought and suffered due to the daily rules of the patriarchal society, the forced Palestinian displacement, the Zionist invasion of Lebanon in 1982, racism and the Lebanese civil war.

After the Israelis invaded Lebanon, there was a time where she with her husband hosted a big number of people from all different nationalities and religions and provided them a shelter and flour to cook, one of the people who came for shelter, was Naji Al-Ali the Palestinian ...
